what is america s national interest in confronting russia and the way that we are? i will answer that with a question and then more of an answer. as donald trump acting like an innocent person as a regard to russia? tucker: let me ask you a question. you will realize how profoundly the trump administration has dee of his opponents? people who decried mccarthyism for 50 years are now engaging in it with no self-awareness. they are accusing people of betraying their country simply because they are not saying the right things, aren t announcing our enemies vigorously enough. do you recognize that? trey gowdy, the republican committee chairman, is the person who says tucker: i don t care what any republican said. i m asking at as a citizen, whs the point of all this? as regards to syria, we are dealing with a war criminal, who
